I don't know though, once you take out Robben then they are really missing a superstar, I mean one could make a case for Sneijder or Memphis, but I guess they should still be destroying C. Republic and Turkey.

They have a good team, but they're young and very raw.


An okay(ish) keeper
a shitty defense/defensive mids
an abundance of incredibly promising attacking mids/wingers
an out of form Van Persie and an aging Huntelaar. I don't really know who that De Jong character is, but I'm sure he's good he scored quite a bit last year iirc.



Czech Republic demolished Dutch.
And they would demolish chile as well.

what? ofc you are! you're obviously having a bad phase atm (not following your team that closely so i can't tell why, maybe it's the coach, maybe the players aren't motivated) but just looking at the names of the players you have and compare them to teams like turkey, iceland and even the czech republic... you are definitely more than decent and should still make it...


Having decent players does not make a decent team. This team lacks experience in the back half of the pitch. Vlaar would be a huge upgrade experience and leadership wise, but he had so many injuries during this qualification.

Nah he doesn't, didn't realise he didn't extend his contract at villa. I don't think he's that great of a defender, but he's a decent leader and that's we miss.
